Check launch pull request status from Dropbox
A launch checklist should answer what is done before you open ten tabs to find out.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Check if pull request merged
Checks if a specified github pull request has been merged, indicated by a 204 http status (merged) or 404 (not merged/found).
Why this helps
Launch readiness is documented in Dropbox, but pull request status still requires manual GitHub checking and interpretation.
- Provides a single readiness snapshot
- Reduces tab switching before launch
- Makes unresolved code work easy to spot
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Dropbox and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it in plain language.
- 3Tell Notis to read the current Dropbox launch checklist, check whether each named GitHub pull request is merged, and summarize anything still open.
- 4Pick a recurring Notis cron trigger, choose the report channel, and test with one checklist.
Questions about this workflow
Does it merge pull requests?
No. It only checks and reports merge status.
Can it run only during launch week?
Yes. Set the cron schedule for the period when the checklist needs active monitoring.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Dropbox to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Dropbox triggers
GitHub actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
List repositories starred by the authenticated user
Deprecated: lists repositories starred by the authenticated user, including star creation timestamps; use 'list repositories starred by the authenticated user' instead.
List stargazers
Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.
Star a repository for the authenticated user
Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.
Add email for auth user
Adds one or more email addresses (which will be initially unverified) to the authenticated user's github account; use this to associate new emails, noting an email verified for another account will error, while an existing email for the current user is accepted.
Add app access restrictions
Replaces github app access restrictions for an existing protected branch; requires a json array of app slugs in the request body, where apps must be installed and have 'contents' write permissions.
Add a repository collaborator
Adds a github user as a repository collaborator, or updates their permission if already a collaborator; `permission` applies to organization-owned repositories (personal ones default to 'push' and ignore this field), and an invitation may be created or permissions updated directly.
Add a repository to an app installation
Adds a repository to a github app installation, granting the app access; requires authenticated user to have admin rights for the repository and access to the installation.
Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
Dropbox and GitHub, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
